Campus Safety

The Campus Safety staff is dedicated to providing a safe and secure environment for Roberts Wesleyan College, Northeastern Seminary, and campus visitors from the community. Campus security officers are on duty 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year. All students should become familiar with the many safety service options available to them while on campus. Service options such as registering for parking permits online; obtaining I.D. cards; and campus rules and safety regulations can be accessed at www.roberts.edu/student-experience/campus-safety.aspx

To report an incident or any emergency on campus, dial 7777 from a campus phone or utilize one of the 13 Blue Light Emergency phones conveniently placed throughout the campus. Just press the button and it will dial campus safety automatically. When the officer answers, please provide your name, Blue Light location, and state the emergency. It is also recommended that all faculty, staff, and students enter the campus safety phone number (585.594.7777) into their cell phone contact list. The Campus Safety Office is located on the second floor of the Voller Athletic Center, room 270.
